The AUD to FJD exchange rate is currently range-bound.
Key drivers include the interest rate expectations, with the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) likely to raise rates early in 2026 due to rising inflation. Meanwhile, the Fijian economy is facing challenges, notably a significant slowdown in growth and ongoing impacts from U.S. tariffs on Fijian exports. This has added pressure on the FJD amid global uncertainties.
Near-term, the AUD is expected to trade within a stable range due to its recent performance, currently 2.3% above its three-month average.
An upside risk could stem from improved global demand for commodities, which may boost the AUD. Conversely, a downturn in Fijian exports or further international trade barriers could negatively impact the FJD's stability and strength against the AUD.
